"Yes." Mo Xuanyi and Yun Jue Ying didn't have any objections to Martial Uncle telling them to understand the situation first.
This was the most appropriate thing to do.
"Back then, when the Phoenix Qi first rose here, it was noticed by our spies. Not long after, our people came to Phoenix City and worked hard to manage it until today."
The middle-aged man leaned against the back seat with his eyes closed. His voice was indifferent and expressionless. "Just to cover up the leakage of the Phoenix Qi, our people paid a huge sacrifice."
"Seven people came here to manage the affairs, but in the end, only one survived. From the peak to the decline, they completely lost the right to speak. Jun Po and Qi Sha took advantage of the situation and contacted the Star Lord. They took eighty percent of the responsibility of this matter to their two sects."
"Later, when Zuo Fu intervened and the Star Emissary came, the benefits were further reduced. Originally, our Greedy Wolf Sect's share of this matter was fifty percent. As for now, even if this matter is successful, our Greedy Wolf Sect's benefits are only five percent. "
Although the middle-aged Martial Uncle's tone was calm, one could hear some indignation in it.
"Five percent?"
Mo Xuanyi and the youth in the back seat obviously had limited knowledge about the Phoenix Vein, so when they heard this, they both blurted out in surprise.
They had never thought that their share of the profits would be so low.
The middle-aged man closed his eyes, his body rising and falling with the bumpy ride of the car. He said indifferently, "Yes, five percent. And this five percent is not worth me personally taking action. The ratio of risk and benefit is completely unbalanced. Since there is not much to gain, why should I take action? "
"In other words, this time, I am only here to accompany Xuanyi. I will not expose myself if I can. "
"That is all."
"Of course, if possible, I will save your Third Senior Sister's life at the critical moment. That is enough."
Mo Xuanyi said in a daze, "Speaking of which, I haven't seen Third Senior Sister yet."
The youth in the back seat, Yun Jue Ying, sighed and said, "I wonder how Third Junior Sister is now … Back then, she was a famous beauty under our Greedy Wolf Sect."
The middle-aged man said indifferently, "She won't be too good, nor will she be too good. She's been bitterly holding on here by herself. It's already very precious that she's been able to survive until now. As for maintaining some sort of national beauty, that's purely your imagination … "
"Right now, even if I don't have chicken skin and crane hair, I shouldn't look like a little girl. Otherwise … I would have died long ago!"
The young man sighed softly, and a trace of haze flashed in his eyes.
He understood the meaning of this sentence. It was already difficult for an ordinary woman to survive in such an environment, let alone a beautiful woman.
"From now on, everything related to the Greedy Wolf Mantra is not allowed to be used."
The middle-aged man slowly straightened his back and said in a low voice, "Martial Uncle, in my life, among my peers, my cultivation is not outstanding, my aptitude is not at the top, and my overall combat strength is not in the top three, but those who are stronger than me are basically all dead now, and I am the only one who is still alive."
"What do you think the reason is? It's just that one word."
Mo Xuanyi and the young man asked curiously, "Martial Uncle Fang, what character?"
"Now that we're in the heart of the Astral Souls, if I don't warn you, I'm afraid you'll be implicated …"
The middle-aged man's face was gloomy as he said, "This word is …"
He said softly, "Coward!"
"Coward?"
Mo Xuanyi and the young man were both stunned, and couldn't help but ask again, "Coward?"
"That's right, coward!"
The middle-aged man didn't feel ashamed at all, and said indifferently, "Do you think cowardice is shameful? Shameful? "
"Let me tell you, as long as you understand the true meaning of this word, even in the most dangerous battlefield, you can survive, at least longer than most people!"
"In life, what is the most important thing? Face? Pride? Family? Friends? Son? Hmm? "
The middle-aged man, Martial Uncle Fang, said sincerely, "The above answers are all wrong! In life, the most important thing is one's life! Your own life! Only by living can you have the qualifications to talk about the future! "
"No matter how much face and pride you lose, as long as you're alive, you have a chance to earn back what you lost, or even more! As long as you're alive, you can have family, friends, and everything. But once you lose your life … then everything will be gone! "
"What was originally yours will become someone else's."
The middle-aged man said solemnly, "In life, you have to be cowardly!"
"This is the last thing I can teach you as your Martial Uncle, I hope you two can remember it."
"This word is the first treasure of life under heaven and earth!"
"Coward!"
…
Mo Xuanyi and the young man were stunned for a long time by their Martial Uncle's words, and after that, they didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
For a long time, they didn't speak.
Coward?
This was the truth, the treasure of life under heaven?
Was this really not a joke?
At least in their hearts, they really didn't think so.
Could it be that I lived and walked in this world just to be a coward? To be a coward? To be able to live?
So I can give up everything and have a chance to start all over again?!
This argument …
Both of them were somewhat baffled by this.
Martial Uncle Fang was imparting wisdom and treasures in the style of a senior, but in the end, he gave them the word 'coward' … They didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
The middle-aged man sighed softly. Looking at the two's faces, he knew that these two people didn't listen to his words at all, and didn't understand at all!
"Sigh, by the time you understand, it may be too late. It's hard to have a chance to start all over again in life …"
He closed his eyes, and many faces flashed through his mind. Each and every one of them had a distinct personality, handsome or beautiful faces, and they were all once influential figures … once the best of the best, once the best of the best …
But now, they were all dead.
He still remembered that time …
Because of fate, they encountered that person. The seeds of the Seventeen Sects were all killed. Only he gave up his dignity and face. He repeatedly kowtowed and begged for mercy. He swore an oath. After returning, he became a traitor. He agreed to countless conditions regardless of the consequences. He even created conditions for himself to help the other party think of a way to control him …
Finally, he survived …
So what if he was a heaven's pride? So what if he was a seed? So what if he was the best of the best?
At that time, that person told him to scram, and he repeatedly kowtowed and begged, saying that he wanted to collect the corpses of his companions. He didn't know if it was because of this camaraderie, that person finally let him go and left.
But that person probably didn't know that after he left, he didn't collect the corpses of his companions.
He laid out the heads of the hundreds of people in front of him. These people, almost every one of them was stronger than him, and had always bullied him and looked down on him.
There were especially handsome ones, especially talented ones, especially beautiful ones with good family backgrounds, especially beautiful ones, especially elegant ones … Those beautiful female Heaven's Prides didn't even look at him before, and seemed to think that he wasn't qualified to speak to him.
But now, only their heads were left, placed in front of him, and he could do whatever he wanted with them, and play with them however he wanted …
He placed their heads neatly on the table.
He just kept watching and waiting.
I want to see, won't the flesh of Heaven's Prides stink when they die? Won't the flesh of Heaven's Prides rot when they die?
In the end, he was enlightened!
It turned out that they would stink and rot when they die!
They had so much self-respect, and they were so unafraid of death. Wouldn't they rot when they die?
From then on, he was enlightened and understood life and death.
He had been living smoothly until now, and when he met an enemy he couldn't resist, he would kneel and kowtow to them, and beg for a chance to live!
Would he die if he kowtowed?
Maybe he still couldn't avoid death!
But if he didn't kowtow, he would definitely die!
"Living for a long time is the true meaning of life!"
The middle-aged man sighed. "I, Fang Yinuo … can live until now, there's no luck!"
The car slowly entered Phoenix City and blended into the bustling city.
…
The three of them alighted at a five-star hotel, and the middle-aged man paid ten times the fare before letting the car leave. "It's been hard on you. When you return to Ningji City, help me say hello to Old Bai."
"Yes, thank you for the reward, Uncle-Master."
The middle-aged man amiably patted the driver's shoulder. "On the way back, you must be careful. When you reach home, remember to send me a message to let me know that you're safe, so that Uncle-Master can rest assured."
"Yes, disciple will remember."
"Go."
Seeing the car turn around and head out of the city, the three of them didn't stop and directly went in to check in.
The car left Phoenix City and sped along the original road, and the driver appeared to be very excited.
This Uncle-Master Fang was really good.
His sending off this time was a voluntary job, so how could he talk about the fare? However, Uncle-Master Fang had given him so much reward, which was equivalent to ten times the normal fare, and all of it went into his pocket. Now that he was back, he could have fun for many days.
However, when they were about a hundred kilometers away from Phoenix City, the driver suddenly felt a little uncomfortable in his heart. He subconsciously covered his chest, and it became more and more uncomfortable. The driver didn't dare to delay and stopped the car to rest.
As for the driver who stopped at the side of the road and rested on the steering wheel, he didn't wake up again …
…
In the hotel.
"Put down the luggage, we'll walk around and see what we want to buy. At the same time, we can take a look at the local customs."
The middle-aged man was very relaxed. "If you're interested, you can also walk around and play. As long as you don't use our sect's mental cultivation method, it's fine."
"Then when are we going to find Third Junior Sister?" The young man asked.
"There's no rush," the middle-aged man said.
"Let's play for a few days first. We're both physically and mentally exhausted from the journey, so we should rest for a few days."
"Before we came, I did my homework. From the hotel, less than six kilometers away is the commercial street. After walking across the commercial street for five minutes, you'll reach the pedestrian street. Other than that, there's also a street for snacks and gourmet food. There's quite a number of streets in Phoenix City. There's also an antique street, a calligraphy and painting street … Tsk tsk, how thoughtful. "
"Yes, there's a big brand in the center of the city, and there's a lot of luxury clothes, watches, and jewelry to the south … It can be said that there's everything. Xuan Yi, you can walk around this street. You should be able to gain a lot. "
"The area we're living in is the new city district, and opposite it is the old city district …"
The middle-aged man was very familiar with the layout of Phoenix City, and in a short while, he had already told the two of them about it.
Yun Jueying was very impressed. "Uncle-Master, have you been to this city before and stayed for a period of time?"
"No, I haven't."
The middle-aged man earnestly said, "Jueying, let me tell you the second secret that I've come up with after so many years of roaming the world. Before you go to the next target city, it's very important that you understand the current general layout of the city, as well as the local customs."
"After you arrive, you have to spend a few days to understand the main roads and small roads of the city, especially the small roads that are related to each other. Oh right, facilities such as the air-raid shelter, especially, can't be missed. Who knows when it might save your life. "
"This is the way to save your life. You have to plan your escape route at all times! Remember, remember! "
"Before you familiarize yourself with the city and understand it well, you must not act rashly."
"After familiarizing yourself with the city, you have to familiarize yourself with the escape route!"
"Then, go through the escape route according to the situation. Practice it three times and find the best one."
"Then, put it into action."
The young man, Yun Jueying, was tongue-tied for a long time. Finally, he coughed and said, "Uncle-Master, I'll go out and familiarize myself with Phoenix City …"
He hurriedly left in a hurry.
"Uncle-Master, I'll also go out and familiarize myself with the city."
"En, you guys go."
The middle-aged man nodded. "I want to familiarize myself with the hotel we're staying in first before going out."
Mo Xuanyi rolled his eyes and left.
When he first met this Uncle-Master, Mo Xuanyi was very respectful!
Cloud Transformation Realm cultivation!
Elegant and graceful!
Gentle and kind!
Occasionally, when he glanced at him, he was also very outstanding.
Every one of them was the best of the best, transcending the mortal world and becoming a saint, not letting down the title of a great cultivator.
But on this road, after walking for hundreds of thousands of miles, the respect and awe he had at the beginning … had long been worn away bit by bit.
From the respect that came from the bottom of his heart to the superficial etiquette now, and even some contempt …
All of this, this Uncle-Master had only used a short distance.
…
Mo Xuanyi walked out of the hotel and blended into the crowd. When he appeared again, he was already in front of a bun shop.
"Boss, give me two buns. What kind of fillings do you have?"
"Meat, vegetables, three delicacies, chives and tofu …"
"Two chives and tofu."
Mo Xuanyi paid while asking, "Boss, I heard that there's a divine fortune teller in Phoenix City? His eyes can see a person's life and death, fortune and misfortune, and a few words can predict a person's life and death. There's such a thing, right? "
The boss laughed. "Of course, customer, you're talking about Master Zuo, right? Master Zuo is now very famous in Phoenix City. Basically, all the rich people in the city have gone to see him. His predictions are very accurate. "
